“Kelsey was great. She kept us updated and sent pictures each day. She is very dependable and always responded quickly. She took great care of our Boston Terrier. We Will definitely have her watch him again.”
“Mark was amazing with our 3 dogs. We were very hesitant to leave them with someone we didn't know for a week and a half. But, Mark was so great to come over beforehand to meet us and meet the girls to make sure it was going to be a good fit for everyone. Mark was great with asking questions and making sure he understood our expectations before we left. While at our house, he did all the dogs' favorite things with them - long walks, runs, rides in the truck, snuggles on the couch. He kept us posted with pictures and videos and updates. When we got home, he had the house looking even better than we'd left it. We will definitely be looking to Mark first whenever we need someone to care for our girls.”
About: I am a responsible and loyal pet caretaker! I LOVE all animals and have owned or pet sat dogs, cats, and rodents. I walked my neighbors dog growing up and have cared for many animals since. I'm passionate about animal care because not only do they need it, but I also need time with pets! Animals need social and emotional connection, and that is what I give to pets. I am a college student taking the summer off to work, and am looking for opportunities to care for animals! I have a part time job in which I make my own hours, so I'm usually available to care for pets when needed. I am a student and cannot have pets in my own residence, however I am very respectful of others homes and make it a priority to leave spaces better than I found them.
About: I have taken care of all my friends and family's pets for as long as I can remember. I love dogs and cats! I have done month long stays at people's houses and I have also done the quick stop ins for potty breaks and feedings. I am currently not working so I have all the time to take care of your pets! I can do quick drop ins, long walks, overnight stays, whatever you need! I like to follow your pets routine. If they are used to morning walks and daily training I will happily do that! If they are more of a couch potato and like to snuggle, I will sit with them for as long as you'd like.
“Shanika has house sat for us a few times now and watched our two dogs. She had been our best dog sitter we’ve found through Rover. Highly recommend her. It’s been so hard finding a reliable dog sitter since we moved to UT and she has been nothing short of amazing.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and my family currently has three, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routines, and I want every pet I care for to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive, and I’ll treat your pet like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I’ll do my best to give you peace of mind while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule right now before starting my nursing job in January, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. I can be flexible with walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I’ll make sure to communicate with you and keep your pet’s routine consistent. My goal is to make sure your pets feel comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away! When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping them comfortable by maintaining their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I know pets feel most secure in familiar surroundings, so I give them plenty of attention, patience, and affection while respecting their space. I’m also happy to send regular photo updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pets are in good hands!

I also grew up all my life with a dog (white lab)! I have a deep love for dogs & cats & of all breeds of all sizes and believe in treating every pet as if they were my own. I’m very flexible with my schedule & I am available most mornings & evenings & most days! I am willing to work around my schedule to help! I care for pets by making sure they get the attention, walks & play they need! I make sure they always have their needs met!
About: I have had a wide range of cats and dogs that I have taken care of during my entire life. I know how to relate to and take care of several different breeds of dogs, I have a high rate of tolerance and I can really understand what are the necessities of any dog. I love them with all my heart just as you do as the owner, as I am a dog owner as well. I know how important it is to have a place that you can trust your pet to be while you are traveling, at work, or just need to go somewhere for a moment and need someone to trust to take care of your furry friend. Please note that my schedule is always subject to change, please contact me to confirm availability for specific times. (I.E. walk/groom your dog, feed/groom your cat, etc... 8a.m., I am unavailable the rest of the day or I'm unavailable in the morning and available to help out 7pm and later - PLEASE MESSAGE ME FOR EXACT HOURLY APPOINTMENTS TO CONFIRM AVAILABILITY. THANK YOU! I currently work part-time so I will have lots of time to be able to take care of your puppies. I have different days available each week however each of those days I'm completely available to help out with whatever I possibly can during our scheduled times, unless otherwise noted. I have a very spacious home where your dog/cat can roam as they please and find the comfortable place that they wish to relax. I also can give them attention based upon their needs if they have dietary needs, etc... and just let them relax and take care of them, feed them and take them on walks. I am currently studying part-time, so I have plenty of time to look after your pups or kitties. Same-day bookings are currently available for house-sitting, drop-in visits, or dog walking. I can be trusted with keys/codes; I am very prudent about respecting others' property and only request that all relevant house rules are laid out before house-sitting. I will maintain reasonably consistent communication throughout the booking to keep the pup and/or kitty owners informed and rest assured their loved ones are in good hands.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Birdseye walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Birdseye maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Birdseye choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Birdseye. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
